Yield: 12 muffins
Prep Time:7 minutes
Cook Time:23 minutes
Total Time:30 minutes

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup white whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick oats (sub: rolled oats)
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons milk of choice
  • 2 large eggs (lightly beaten)
  • 1/4 cup avocado oil (sub: any neutral oil like canola, vegetable, etc.)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions
 

  1. Prep: Preheat to 350°F. Coat 12-count muffin pan with cooking spray and set aside.
  2. Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, stir together flour, oats, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Wet Ingredients: In a second mixing bowl, whisk together yogurt, milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla.
  4. Combine: Fold wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir just until combined. Gently fold in the blueberries. The batter will be thick. 
  5. Bake & Cool: Scoop the batter into the muffin cups, filling them to the top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking, until a toothpick comes out mostly clean (no batter). Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan, and then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling. Store in a covered dish or storage bag on the counter for a few days, but put them in the fridge after that.

Freezer Instructions

Freeze For Later: Follow recipe as directed and let muffins cool. Place in a gallon-sized freezer bag in a single layer and freeze flat. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Prepare From Frozen: Wrap frozen muffin a moist paper towel and microwave in 30-second increments until it is warmed through.

Notes/Tips

  • Really fill that muffin tin up! Use all the batter for 12 muffins.
  • Quick oats blend in a bit better than rolled oats but both will work fine.
  • The easiest way to distribute the muffin batter is to use a large cookie or ice cream scoop.
  • Fold the blueberries in as gently as possible to prevent them from breaking open.
  • For extra blueberry flavor, use blueberry Greek yogurt and decrease the granulated sugar to 2/3 cup.
  • Variations: replace 1/2 cup of the blueberries with nuts (pistachios, almonds, pecans, etc), white or dark chocolate chips, or dried cranberries.
